Abstract

Our project team collected and analyzed data from September 2006 through March 2007 focusing on ways to improve the WPI Venture Forum. Initially, we addressed any current problems dealing with fluctuating attendance, networking issues, and ways of reaching out and expanding the WPI Venture Forum. Our team surveyed and interviewed current members, attendees, and entrepreneurs. We researched, compared, and contrasted similar competitive organizations nearby. Finally, we analyzed our data and suggested ideas to implement into the Forum which comprised of applying multiple topics at each meeting, creating an online networking program, and increasing the WPI Venture Forum's name throughout the internet and surrounding organizations.
